Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Hygiene of the Soldier in the Tropics, Vol. 7 The importance of a knowledge of Military Hygiene on the part of officers in command of troops has long been recognized, and was painfully emphasized during the war with Spain by the heavy losses of many volunteer organizations that, remaining in home camps, did not see a hostile flag or hear a hostile shot. Not only is Military Hygiene a subject for serious consideration when our troops are stationed in a climate to which they are accustomed, but it becomes doubly so when they are called upon to serve in tropical regions whose climatic and hygienic conditions are new and strange, and where no enemy is so formidable as the endemic diseases. The climatic conditions of Cuba, Porto Rico, and the Philippines are not unlike those of Madagascar, Tong-King, and Martinique; and the observations, experience, and deductions of the medical officers of the French Army in those regions are accordingly deserving of careful attention. It is reasonable to conclude that anything good or bad for a French soldier will be beneficial or injurious to an American soldier serving under like conditions, and the editor therefore ventures the hope that by placing this translation in the hands of his brother officers he may be, in some degree, conferring a benefit upon our military service.
